A protein-rich mixture (VPM) prepared from chick peas, sesame flour, and low-fat soybean flour was evaluated in infants in a controlled metabolic study.
Nitrogen retentions and weight gains in infants fed VPM compared favorably with those of infants fed a cow's milk diet. Supplementation of VPM with l-lysine and l-methionine did not increase nitrogen retention. Incaparina was evaluated in infants. Weight gains and nitrogen retentions in infants fed Incaparina were similar to those of infants on VPM.
